Selling vintage posters in Sherbrooke
The student population is large enough to set the rhythm for the whole city: housing empties in spring and refills in autumn, and winter sports equipment turns over on a reliable seasonal cycle on top of that.
The city is built on hills and the older streets are steep, so access is worth confirming for anything heavy. The downtown is compact and works well as a meeting point for anything portable.
The city is built on hills and a great deal of housing is up a flight of external stairs. Ask which floor and whether there are steps before you agree a price on anything heavy.
Sherbrooke, in Quebec, has around 170,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Montreal, Quebec City and Laval are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Sherbrooke

What vintage posters are worth
What lifts the price
- Linen-backed conservation work
- Strong colour with no fading
What pulls it down
- Later reproductions sold as originals
- Fold lines that have split
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the dimensions against known original sizes
- Photograph the margins and any fold lines
Getting it ready
- Measure the sheet precisely. Original release sizes are standardised by country and period, and a wrong size is usually the giveaway for a reproduction.
- Do not trim, flatten, back or tape anything. Restoration and linen backing are specialist jobs and amateur attempts destroy value.

Subject, year, format and country: “Original French Grande Poster, [Title], 1966, Folded”. The format name and the country are what collectors search. Say original or reproduction in the title itself — leaving it ambiguous costs you the serious buyers, who simply skip listings that hedge.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
